0:00:28 > 0:00:31Ukip members have campaigned for this for 23 years,

0:00:31 > 0:00:35but this is only the beginning of regaining control,

0:00:39 > 0:00:42My priority as a Ukip councillor

0:00:42 > 0:00:44is to house local people

0:00:44 > 0:00:46and veterans first of all.

0:00:46 > 0:00:49I certainly would want us to make sure

0:00:49 > 0:00:51that we protect our greenfield sites

0:00:51 > 0:00:54and that we build on brownfield sites first of all

0:00:54 > 0:00:55and, more importantly,

0:00:55 > 0:00:59we build affordable homes for the local people.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01Ukip stands for, and has always stood for,

0:01:01 > 0:01:04the ordinary person who wants to be left alone

0:01:04 > 0:01:05and enjoy life as they please,

0:01:05 > 0:01:11in a community of shared values and in a country that governs itself.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13We don't want to be governed excessively,

0:01:13 > 0:01:16expensively or indeed remotely.

0:01:16 > 0:01:20Ukip are the only party brave enough to oppose health tourism

0:01:20 > 0:01:25and the only party prepared to cut the foreign aid budget

0:01:25 > 0:01:28so that we can fund adult social care in this country.

0:01:28 > 0:01:29As a Ukip councillor,

0:01:29 > 0:01:33I believe that every child has a right to a good quality education.

0:01:33 > 0:01:38Parents have the right to choose where their children are schooled.

0:01:38 > 0:01:43Ukip councillors will do this for you, we will fight for you.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45Ukip councillors were elected four years ago.

0:01:45 > 0:01:49Everywhere they were elected, they fought to rebuild democracy,

0:01:49 > 0:01:52they fought to keep costs down,

0:01:52 > 0:01:55they've opposed any increase in councillors' allowance,

0:01:55 > 0:01:59and they've worked hard on behalf of the working people who elected them.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01I'm voting Ukip because I know

0:02:01 > 0:02:05that Ukip will prioritise roads and maintenance.

0:02:05 > 0:02:09Potholes are a priority over council vanity schemes.

0:02:14 > 0:02:17something that our communities desperately need.

0:02:17 > 0:02:21We want to continue to do our bit for local communities.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25Unlike other parties, Ukip councillors are not whipped.

0:02:25 > 0:02:27They are there to serve the local community,

0:02:27 > 0:02:32they will always put local needs above party affiliation.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36I do what my constituents need me to do,

0:02:36 > 0:02:38not what my party want me to do.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41Local government is about local people

0:02:47 > 0:02:50that has successfully challenged a sitting government,

0:02:50 > 0:02:52and we have a strong record in local councils

0:02:52 > 0:02:54up and down the country,

0:02:54 > 0:02:58and that's why I'm asking you to support us on May 4th,
